Joint Release FTSE Value-Stocks Index Series Extended with a New Custom Solution, to Access Unique Investment Opportunity in ASEAN Market • Expanding scope of custom solutions to best meet investor needs • Reinforces FTSE leading position as provider of benchmark indices linked to the exciting investment opportunity in the growing ASEAN market Hong Kong, 12 November 2013 – FTSE Group (“FTSE”), the leading global index provider, and Value Partners Index Services Limited (“Value Partners”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Value Partners Group, today launched the FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index. The new index uses Value Partners’ unique value investing methodology, and is calculated and maintained by FTSE’s dedicated custom index solutions team. Derived from the universe of the FTSE Global All Cap Index, the new index captures the performance of 50 quality value stocks amongst liquid and tradable ASEAN companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (“IDX”), Bursa Malaysia, the Philippine Stock Exchange (“PSE”), the Singapore Exchange (“SGX”) and the Stock Exchange of Thailand (“SET”). Constituent stocks are capped at 5% to avoid over-concentration in any one stock. Ms. Jessie Pak, Managing Director, Asia of FTSE Group, said “We are delighted to continually extend our cooperation with Value Partners to offer a new value-based index solution to capture investment opportunities in the growing ASEAN market. FTSE indices and custom solutions are globally sought by product providers and asset owners because the index solutions combine unique investment requirements with objective calculation and robust methodology to support a range of investment challenges and mandates.” Mr. William Chow, Managing Director at Value Partners, commented “Value Partners is committed to enrich our product offering both in terms of value ETFs and value-based indices, and today marks another milestone with our first ever index with a regional exposure. This unique smart-beta index is the result of exceptional team work, dedication and a combination of creativity and discipline among our quantitative research team and FTSE’s team. I believe this will bring index innovation to the next level.” For more information on the FTSE Value-Stocks Index Series including the ground rules, please visit http://www.ftse.com/Indices/Custom_Value_Partners/index.jsp. - Ends Media contacts FTSE Group Hong Kong London New York Tokyo Fennie Wong Lucie Holloway Rishi Sharma Stewart Ueno Tel: Tel: Tel: Tel: +852 2164 3267 +44 20 7866 1821 +1 212 314 1198 +81 3 3581 3444 Email [email protected] Value Partners Group Limited Teresa Yu, Associate Director, Marketing and Communications Tel: +852 2143 0320 Email: [email protected] About FTSE Group FTSE is a global leader in indexing and analytical solutions.
